<br/><br/> "Both nationally and in Ohio, motor vehicle crashes are the leading cause of accidental deaths, according to the National Safety Council. And per miles driven, motorists age 75 and older have the highest rate of fatal and nonfatal crashes of any age group." (AKRON BEACON JOURNAL) This article, which examines the dangers that often confront elderly drivers, reports that "older adults can lose their sharp vision, have less physical strength, less feeling in their extremities, and less joint mobility, plus take more time to react while driving.".
